	The idmap_tdb plugin is the default backend used by winbindd
	for storing SID/uid/gid mapping tables.
	</p><p>
	In contrast to read only backends like idmap_rid, it is an allocating
	backend: This means that it needs to allocate new user and group IDs in
	order to create new mappings.

	This example shows how tdb is used as a the default idmap backend.
	This configured range is used for uid and gid allocation.

	The original Samba software and related utilities
	were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
	by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar
	to the way the Linux kernel is developed.
